I looked at the code and the best I can understand from the code below: <!-- main ************************** --> <menuset label="main menu"> <screen layout="screen watermark"/> <!-- <title layout="default title" x="400" y="60" width="400" height="60"/> --> <listing layout="main menu list" x="410" y="140" width="345" height="420"/> </menuset> that I am not sure it is possible to have 2 columns of even relative positions for the main menu. My motivation is based on having a large widescreen TV and I want the menu items to be centered or 2/3 way off center to the right. I set my geometry to 1920x1080 and you can see that the items are all stacked up way to the left with the code above. Right now, I am deducing the positions by trial and error ... Thanks!
